[1]kenneth-udut-best-wordedI'm one of the ancients I guess. Been
online nearly nonstop since 1988. *I knew something would come
of this Internet thing other than emails and newsgroups and I
wasn't disappointed. I think I might have had almost every
possible configuration of every possible conversation of every
possible subject matter possible... and yet, every single bit of
correspondence is fresh and new to me because I find humans
fascinating. Still can't believe I'm a member of the species..
But I'm also lying. *I approach every interaction with the
following question: "What can I say to this person that's
completely honest, personal, endearing, emotionally transparent
that will give them as much of "me" as is possible over limited
bandwidth while also making them go, "woah!"? So, I feel a bit
dishonest now. *Bit of a faker. *Almost a politician, if there
was such an awful thing online. But thank you very much; in
retrospect I feel like I was fishing for a complement and I'm
likely doing it now. I'm also shy of sleep and realize I
probably should've just said, "Thanks!" but neither concise nor
socially appropriate were ever my strong points :P Thanks again
for the challenge initially and the nice compliment. *I actually
save complements; I took a snippet of your compliment (without
our name) and saved it. *It's good for those times when dealing
with difficult people. Your words will serve me well in the
future, and I appreciate it! *As I do a lot of writing (as you
can see), "Nicely worded my friend" *"Best I've seen in a long
time" are compliments that speak to my character for me and
bolster my confidence, so my appreciation is genuine and deep.
*Thanks again! *:)
